================================

Increment ID:   I121730
Date created:   September 13, 2000
CSR number:     CN90110, CT92550


Title: 
------
ANX visibility in INM view & UE9000 increment improvements


Effect on Traffic:
------------------
This increment has no effect on traffic. (See Special Instructions)


Detailed Description of Increment:  
----------------------------------

The increment solves the problem of ANXs randomly disappearing
from the INM view.  The disappearances occurred in two situations:
- On very large span of controls
- Where there were duplicate NE IDs.

This increment also improves the application process when incrementing 
the UE9000 shelf.

System Configuration / Shelf Type Requirements:
-----------------------------------------------
This increment must be applied to all AN17.30 AccessNode configurations
and shelf types.  This increment affects the OPC load.

Prerequisite Increments Required:
---------------------------------
Increments I1A1730 - I11A1730 must be successfully applied prior to
the application of this increment.


Loads Affected:
---------------
OPC - ACNL17BZ

Special Instructions:
---------------------
*** PLEASE NOTE ***
After successfully installing this increment, you MUST EXIT the 
ISD tool before loading another increment.  Failure to exit ISD 
will result in using the old ISD software and this increment will 
NOT be effective.

Test Instructions:
------------------
For ANXs on INM view fix:  After installing patch, go to the INM
view and verify that all ANXs are now visible.

For the UE9000 increment application process fix:  After installing
patch, UE9000 increments should no longer timeout and require
manual intervention during the application phase of installation.
